Panel 1: "Hey, let's play a game! Me and Pickles vs. you and Spitsy!" "Ha! You're ON, Francis!" Panel 2: "We'll prove dogs are athletically superior to cats!" "WURF!" Panel 3: "You cover Pickles, Spitsy! I want you on her like white on rice! Got it?" Panel 4: "HIKE!" "one Mississippi...two Mississippi...three Mississippi...four Mississippi..." Panel 5: "FIVE Mississippi!" "ZING!" Panel 6: "SPITSY! INTERCEPT IT!!" Panel 7: "WHUMP!" Panel 8: "Her favorite teams are the Lions, Bengals, Panthers, and Jaguars!" "Spitsy, that's bad defense."
Actually, I’ve done a Sunday strip before where Spitsy plays footbal against Nate’s Dad and pulls down his pants. I’ve also shown Spitsy wander onto the baseball field during a game and make a great catch. And Pickles has snowboarded before in the strip, and I think she’s gone surfing at the beach, too, if I’m not mistaken.
